On what looks like the last good day before we head out to Spain we had plenty of flying and lots of progress.
The hangers had a full day with Saied Z (Bracknell) cracking the chest release, slow flight appreciation and prone flying looking much smoother all round. Landings are improving although those nice floaty tippy toed ones still allude him. Bit worrying during the day to see him tied to the front of the truck though, still whatever works............
Mike P (bath) had another good day popping in the high flights with prone conversions, slow flight appreciation and "spot" landings. He also was looking much sweeter by the close of play, another few landings by the windsock and it's off to the hill for him too.
Pilot x joined in the fun on the hangers and finished their CPC off with a cracking stall and slow flight appreciation whilst in total control. Super landings gave a good example to the boys and something to aim for. Well done Kaz, damn I've let it slip!

On the Paragliders Sarah and Nigel (St Just) had a stonker putting in 12 and 9 flights respectively with Sarah getting her first high flights in. They both did really well working into their CPC tasks including, speed to fly, weight shift accelerator systems and spot landings. With the day starting a little bumpy and then smoothing out the had a fine time and even managed to enjoy the views.

With over 50 tows put away a good day to end on before our "holiday" well done to all concerned..........Phippsy
